New Here

[DS Chins]

I just wanted to say hi as I am new here :)
My name is Kim, I have a busy life, with being a navy wife, vice president of a newly founded NPO that works to raise funds for worldwide animal shelters with most of our member's being military and military spouses.
I also do my share of fostering and rescueing, as well as keeping up with my own pet forum that is still fairly new.
I also raise/breed and rescue chinchillas :)

Hey, welcome to Pet Talk! You ARE busy! :) That's awesome, though! I need to busier! ;) I'm Kari, I have a yellow lab named Finn, you can see his silly face in my pretty signatures. It's nice to meet you, Kim....

Hi Kim it's nice to meet you and welcome to Pet Talk or as we pettalk fungi like to call it PT. You sound like you have quite a busy life. Good Job girl. My name is Michelle. I have to cats. Both of which are in my signature. The one with more white is Vixen and the darker girl is Lilith. We hope to hear more from you and that you enjoy PT.

Welcome aboard, Kim!! You'll enjoy this place very much.

You sound very busy, that's so cool! I'm very glad to see that you rescue and foster. I wish I had the means and room to do that whenever it was needed.

What's the name/link of your pet forum, if you don't mind me asking?

My name's Sara and I'm owned by a Cocker Spaniel named Daisy. She's in my signature below. She's the run of the household, as most dogs are.

I hope you love it here as much as the rest of it do!

Hi Kim! Welcome to Pet Talk! :D

[DS Chins]

Thanks for the welcome everyone :)

As asked my forum is www.animaldreamz.com it is still very new ;)

My chinchilla site is http://dirtysouthchinchillas.animaldreamz.com which is still a work in progress.

I do try as busy as possible, and with my husband still in Italy (I moved back early), I have taken in few fosters, but when we are together, look out .... lol

A little more about my zoo .... Currently I have here with my Sydney (almost 5 months) a female red merle Australian Cattle Dog, she was adopted 2 days after moving here from the local animal control. I also have Gretchen a 9 month old female Rotti, she was adopted through a friend (she wasn't treated very nice in her previous home), 2 cats, 30+ chinchillas and 1 Hedgie.
In Italy with my husband are our other 6 dogs (yes 6 more), most were rescues from there, 2 more cats, 11 more chinchillas (6 were rescues) and our 4 bunnies (all rescues).
Yup a zoo ... lol ... but we have no children, so they are all our children and I couldn't imagine life without them.

Hello DS Chins,;)
I am owned by a brindle chihuahua. She is 15 months old. My niece is an army wife. Her husband is in Sinai Penninsula right now keeping the peace at the border of Egypt and Isreal. She was in North Carolina for a while with her husband. Now she is near the family while he is away.
